Nissan Maxima Owners Manual: Front power seat adjustment

Operating tips

• The power seat motor has an auto-reset overload protection circuit. If the motor stops during operation, wait 30 seconds then reactivate the switch.
• Do not operate the power seat switch for a long period of time when the engine is off.

  This will discharge the battery.

For additional information, refer to "Automatic drive positioner" in the "Pre-driving checks and adjustments" section of this manual.

Forward and backward

Moving the switch forward or backward will slide the seat forward or backward to the desired position.

Reclining

Move the recline switch backward until the desired angle is obtained. To bring the seatback forward again, move the switch forward and move your body forward. The seatback will move forward.

The reclining feature allows adjustment of the seatback for occupants of different sizes for added comfort and to help obtain proper seat belt fit.

Also, the seatback can be reclined to allow occupants to rest when the vehicle is stopped and the shift lever is in P (Park).
